Nicolas Cage"s Live-Action Spider-Man Breaks A 47 Year Old Spider-Man Casting Tradition
Summary
In the source material, Spider-Man Noir is the Peter Parker from Earth-90214, where superheroes begin to appear in the 1920s. Like the main Marvel universe's Peter Parker, Spider-Man Noir faces villains such as the Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus, and Mysterio, and he crosses paths with other heroes and anti-heroes such as Black Cat, the Punisher, and Daredevil. Nicolas Cage's Spider-Man Noir will not be Peter Parker, but a different character who takes the Spider-Man mantle in his own universe, which will likely be separate from Sony's Spider-Man Universe movies and their established continuity.

Other superheroes have recently starred in movies and shows that deal with this kind of theme. For instance, Hugh Jackman's Wolverine faced the end of his centuries-long journey as his powers faded in Logan, Robert Downey Jr.'s Iron Man retired for five years in Avengers: Endgame, Jeremy Renner's Clint Barton struggled with side effects of his job in Hawkeye, and Ben Affleck's Batman had to adapt to massive changes in the world at the end of his career in the DCEU.

Related Nicolas Cage's Superhero Role Requirements Make Me Even More Excited For His Live-Action Spider-Man Nicolas Cage has clarified his thoughts on superhero roles, and his high bar for quality has me optimistic for the live-action Spider-Man Noir series.
The possible storylines for Noir are endless, especially given the show's potential 1930s setting. Nicolas Cage's Spider-Man Noir might face very different challenges than the rest of live-action Spider-Men, from seeing his abilities deteriorate to having to adjust to a new generation of villains and heroes and living up to his fame in a vintage New York City, not to mention the higher amount of street-level crime that his comic-book counterpart usually confronts in comparison to the modern-day Spider-People. Besides, a different Spider-Man who isn't necessarily tied to Peter Parker will provide Noir with plenty of creative freedom.
